We consider the task of fitting a regression model involving interactions among a potentially large set of covariates, in which we wish to enforce strong heredity. We propose FAMILY, a very general ...

We analyze boosting algorithms [Ann. Statist. 29 (2001) 1189–1232; Ann. Statist. 28 (2000) 337–407; Ann. Statist. 32 (2004) 407–499] in linear regression from a new perspective: that of modern ...

This course discusses basic convex analysis (convex sets, functions, and optimization problems), optimization theory (linear, quadratic, semidefinite, and geometric programming; optimality conditions ...

where \(\mathsf{G}(\cdot)\) is some convex operator and \(\mathcal{F}\) is as set of feasible input distributions. Examples of such an optimization problem include finding capacity in information ...
